Roy Moore Sex Scandal Missing From Fox’s 5 PM Hour

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on November 13, 2017 · Flag

This afternoon, a fifth woman came forward to accuse U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore of sexual misconduct, this time alleging him of sexually assaulting her when she was 16. But guess which network didn’t cover it during the next hour?

The news broke during a press conference a few hours after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell urged Moore to “step aside” from the race.

These latest allegations, from a woman named Beverly Young Nelson, are just as disturbing, if not more so, than the previous four women because unlike the others, Nelson accused Moore of refusing to take no for an answer. From The New York Times:

“I tried fighting him off, while yelling at him to stop, but instead of stopping, he began squeezing my neck attempting to force my head onto his crotch,” Ms. Nelson said in a statement she issued at the news conference. She said Mr. Moore warned her that “no one will believe you” if she told anyone about the encounter in his car.

What are the chances that if this came out about a Democratic senator late in a campaign with big implications for Republicans holding its Senate majority that Fox would be so blasé about this latest bombshell? I know, I know, it’s ridiculous to even ask.

But with a Republican in the hot seat, it’s a whole different story for Fox. NewsHound Richard tweeted some revealing screen grabs. The Times’ email alert about Moore’s fifth accuser reached my inbox at 4:42. Richard's first tweet came out with the top stories at 5 PM ET. First, CNN and MSNBC:

Here's what Fox News and Fox Business wanted to talk about as the most important story of the day so far:

And here are the next two top stories from The Five, via Richard:

FOX News at 5 PM still has not covered the new #RoyMoore accuser story but they have time to whine about Colin Kaepernick. pic.twitter.com/j8iRsYg83T

In fact, there were no stories about Moore on The Five.

Is Fox waiting for the White House talking points before deciding how it wants to address this latest bombshell?

We report, you decide. 

Correction: I originally and erroneously reported that the New York Times broke the news about the fifth Moore accuser.

Diddling Roy is already looking at homes in the DC area. Wants to be near an elementary school so he won’t have to travel far for dates.

I wonder how different the reaction would be if this were underage boys that Moore was stalking?

I still expect that Moore will win. His supporters will just say they prayed on it.

Moore reminds me of Subway’s Jared Fogle. He also like the girls between 13 and 17. They should check his computer for pictures of underage girls.

We have to learn to expect this type of behavior from Fox. They are the heart and soul of the GOP, and that doesn’t say much for either heart, or soul.
It’s a cult of ignorance and evil that will destroy our nation.

These frauds at this demonic network are very good at covering up sex scandals. Look at the multiple lawsuits against them.

The Fox News Revolt Express are exposing these frauds through other media.
